At least 57 regions of Russia, or more than half, have faced fuel supply disruptions following Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries.
The BBC writes about this, according to its own calculations.
The problems were mainly observed at independent gas stations.
The publication took into account all cases reported since August, even if the situation on the ground has stabilized by now.
According to The Moscow Times, the attacks affected every third oil refinery in Russia.
At least 14 attacks were recorded in August, eight in September, and four more in the first ten days of October.
According to data from Reuters, Bloomberg, and S&P Global Commodity Insights, at least ten businesses, including export-oriented ones, were partially or completely shut down in August and September.
According to the BBC, since January, Ukrainian drones have attacked 21 of the country’s 38 largest refineries, which is 48% more than the figure for all of 2024.
Let us remind you:
It was previously reported that 20 regions of Russia and the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine experienced fuel shortages after Ukrainian drones attacked Russian oil refineries.
The Government of the Russian Federation has extended a temporary ban on gasoline exports and imposed restrictions on other types of fuel until the end of 2025.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the fuel shortage in Russia, resulting from long-range strikes, has reached 20%.
